Words of An Angel
She really did catch that train as she was headed back home
So much time spent in vain like the streets she used to roam
All those lights passing her by as she looked out the window
Sitting there asking herself why, an answer she couldn't know
It was the other night when someone reached out to her
Giving her a new sense of sight as to the way things were
Together they sat down to eat on that cold December night
Not a nicer person could you meet for this was not her fight
And as the two sat there she looked at the young girl's face
"Now is the time to repair all those things you can't replace
You have so much to achieve and so much yet to live for
This is the time to leave and find out what God has in store"
Something about how she spoke and in all the words she said
Finally something inside had awoke as it all clicked in her head
In the reflection of that window she seen her sitting just behind
Yet the train was empty though just like that place they had dined
